Today we’re sinking our teeth into one of the most beloved horror-comedy classics of the ’80s — Fright Night (1985), written and directed by Tom Holland.
Join us as we break down the film’s iconic blend of vampire lore, practical effects, humor, and unforgettable performances. From Chris Sarandon’s charmingly sinister Jerry Dandrige to Roddy McDowall’s legendary horror-host-turned-hero Peter Vincent, we dive deep into everything that makes Fright Night such a cult favorite.
We’ll be talking characters, story beats, special effects, behind-the-scenes facts, and why this film remains a timeless entry in the vampire genre.
If you’re a fan of ’80s horror, creature features, or you just love seeing vampires with style, you’re in the right place. Grab a drink, turn down the lights, and come hang out with us at the Villa.
